The phase behaviour and self-assembly structural parameters of a pair of monosaccharide and disaccharide Guerbet branched-chain β-D-glycosides, namely 2-octyldodecyl β-D-glucoside (β-Glc-C12C8) and 2-octyldodecyl β-D-maltoside (β-Mal-C12C8), have been studied by means of optical polarizing microscopy (OPM) and small-angle X-ray diffraction at room temperature (25°C). These compounds are sugar-based glycolipid surfactants having a total chain length of C20, and differ based on the increasing number of hydroxyl groups of the sugar headgroup (glucose and maltose). The repeat spacings obtained by X-ray diffraction as a function of water content have been used to determine the limiting hydration for the two glycosides. At room temperature, β-Glc-C12C8 and β-Mal-C12C8 have limiting hydrations of 22 wt% and 25 wt%, corresponding to 8 10 and 10 12 water molecules per glycoside, respectively. At all water contents between 5 and 29 wt % water, these compounds adopt inverse hexagonal (HII) or fluid lamellar (Lα) phases. The structural parameters of these phases have been determined from the diffraction data, from the X-ray repeat spacings, densities and concentration of the glycosides.

Anorthite and gehlenite crystalline structure and short-range order of anorthite melt have been studied by X-ray diffraction in the temperature range from room temperature up to ~ 1923 K. The corresponding anorthite and gehlenite phases were identified as well as amorphous component for anorthite samples having identical shape to XRD pattern of the anorthite melt. The structure factor and the radial distribution function of atoms of the anorthite melt were calculated from the X-ray high-temperature experimental data. The partial structural parameters of the short-range order of the melt were reconstructed using Reverse Monte Carlo simulations.

The ammonium salts of the complex anions trans-diiodobis(ethanedial-dioximato)-cobaltate(III), [Col2(GH)2]-, and trans-diiodobis(ethanedial-dioximato)rhodate(III), [RhI2(GH)2]- (GH- = ethanedial dioximate or glyoximate), have been synthesized and their structures determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data at room temperature. The crystals of the two salts are monoclinic, space group C2/c. NH4[CoI2(GH)2] (I) crystallizes as dark-brown prisms with a greenish reflectance; its crystal data are: C4H10Col2N5O4, Mr = 504.90; a = 8.910(6), b = 11.700(9), c = 11.691(6) Å; β = 93.55(5)°; V = 1216.4 Å3; Z = 4; Dc = 2.78 Mg m-3. NH4[RhI2(GH)2] (II) crystallizes as yellow-brown blocks with crystal data: C4H10I2N5O4Rh, Mr = 548.88; a = 9.038(4), b = 11.949(5), c = 11.770(3) Å; β = 95.54(3)°; V = 1265.16 A3; Z = 4; Dc = 2.87 Mg m-3. The two structures were refined to a final RW = 0.045 for 1209 observed independent reflections and 95 parameters for I, and to a final RW = 0.040 for 1922 observed independent reflections and 87 parameters for II. The coordination geometry around Co or Rh in the anionic complexes is a distorted (4 + 2) octahedron of four equatorial chelating N atoms and two apical iodides. The H atoms of the hydroxyl groups are involved, as usual, in intramolecular O—H—O bridges with uniform Ο···Ο separations of 2.582 Å for I, and 2.713 Å for II. The rectilinear I—Co—I or I—Rh—I triads form “infinite” zigzag chains extending parallel to the ab plane, with a weak I—I contact of 3.988 Å for I, and 4.010 Å for II.

Their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and infrared spectroscopy. Complex 1 exhibits a 2-fold interpenetrated pcu net. Complex 2 shows an unusual polycatenated 2D+2D→3D framework. In addition, the solid-state photoluminescent properties of 1 and 2 were investigated at room temperature.

Ferromagnetic Shape Memory

Polycrystalline ingots of Co70–xNixGa30 (20 ≤ x ≤ 26) ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (FSMA) were prepared by arc melting elemental powders followed by homogenization at 1230 °C for 24 hrs and quenching in liquid nitrogen. Room temperature X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of as-quenched samples exhibited single-phase tetragonal structure for alloy compositions with x = 21 to 26, and a two-phase structure (cubic A2-phase along with weak tetragonal phase) for the alloy with x = 20. Rietveld refinement was performed on the X-ray diffraction patterns to obtain the refined structural parameters. Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) curves recorded from 30 °C to 250 °C revealed martensite-austenite and austenite-martensite transformations in all alloys except the alloy with composition x = 20. Low temperature ac magnetic susceptibility measurements confirmed the existence of martensitic transformations in the alloy with x = 20. The structural transformation temperatures show a linear variation with e/a ratio. All the alloys were ferromagnetic at room temperature. Curie temperature was determined using a high temperature ac magnetic susceptibility measurement set-up.

Cell Parameters

Room temperature and low-temperature (110–140 K) powder diffractograms have been obtained for the polymeric compounds [Cu(4-Xpz)2]x (where X = H, CH3, Cl, and Br), and values of the unit cell parameters (orthorhombic, space group Ibam) a, b, and c have been obtained at both high and low temperatures. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study of the X = H compound at 116 K was completed and the results compared with a published study done at room temperature. The structures of these complexes involve extended chains of pyrazolate-bridged copper ions extending along the c crystallographic axis. The X-ray studies indicate little change in the c parameter with decreasing temperature and small but significant changes in the a or b parameters reflecting changes in interchain packing. This study permits some evaluation of how structural parameters are affected by these variations in interchain packing and how these variations may be affecting the magnitude of magnetic exchange in the compounds.

Precise Knowledge

For a symmetry-consistent theoretical description of the multiferroic phase of Ba2CoGe2O7 a precise knowledge of its crystal structure is a prerequisite. In a previous synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiment on multiferroic Ba2CoGe2O7 at room temperature, forbidden reflections were found that favour the tetragonal-to-orthorhombic symmetry lowering of the compound [Hutanu, Sazonov, Murakawa, Tokura, Náfrádi & Chernyshov (2011), Phys. Rev. B, 84, 212101]. Here, the results are reported of room-temperature single-crystal diffraction studies with both hot and cold neutrons to differentiate between genuine symmetry lowering and multiple diffraction (the Renninger effect). A comparison of the experimental multiple diffraction patterns with simulated ones rules out symmetry lowering. Thus, the structural model based on the tetragonal space group P\overline{4}2_{1}m was selected to describe the Ba2CoGe2O7 symmetry at room temperature. The precise structural parameters from neutron diffraction at 300 K are presented and compared with the previous X-ray diffraction results.

Perovskite Materials

We present a new method for soft chemical synthesis of perovskite materials. Perovskite K1-xLixNbO3 powders are produced by an ion-exchange reaction of layered perovskite precursor, K2NbO3F, with lithium chloride in water at room temperature. X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescent spectroscopic studies show that a mechanism of the ion-exchange reaction is a self-assembly between the perovskite nanosheets in aqueous solution.

Triclinic Modification

An orthorhombic crystalline modification of [(PS)H+][OTeF5−] was studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction ((PS)H+ = protonated 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene): orthorhombic, space group Cmcm, a = 8.607(2), b = 14.048(3), c = 13.365(2) Å, Z = 4, T = −130 °C. The structural parameters for the anion and cation in this modification (Mod-B) are very similar to those for the previously reported triclinic modification of this salt (Mod-A). However, variable temperature IR spectra for Mod-B suggest that the OTeF5− anion is exhibiting a two-site O/Fax interchange above −70 °C. Solid-state 19F NMR spectra suggest that this interchange may be as rapid as 104–105 s−1 at room temperature. Keywords: crystal structure of protonated 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene)pentafluorotellurate(VI), polymorphism, solid state 19FNMR.

The preparation and characterization of the isomers rac-4′-(4-butan-2-yloxyphenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (rac-2), 4′-(2-methylpropoxyphenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (3) and 4′-(tert-butoxyphenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (4) are reported. The compounds react with Co(NCS)2 under conditions of crystal growth at room temperature to give single crystals of [{Co(rac-2)2(NCS)2}·CHCl3]n, [Co(3)2(NCS)2]n and [{Co(4)2(NCS)2}·CHCl3]n which possess (4,4) networks, with the Co centers acting as 4-connecting nodes. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) was used to confirm that the crystals chosen for single crystal X-ray diffraction were representative of the bulk samples. The detailed structures of the three networks have been compared with that of the previously reported [{Co(1)2(NCS)2}·4CHCl3]n in which 1 is 4′-(butoxyphenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine. Whereas the switch from 1 with the straight-chain butoxy substituent to rac-2, 3 and 4 with branched chains causes significant structural perturbation, changes in the spatial properties of the branched substituents are accommodated with subtle conformational changes in the 3,2′:6′,3″-tpy domain.

The local structure of molten CdCl2 was investigated by X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analyses. The nearest Cd2+-Cl− distance decreases from 2.61 Å in the room temperature solid state to 2.47 - 2.50 Å in the molten state. The coordination number decreases from 6 in the solid to 4 in the melt. The obtained structural parameters from the XAFS and the XRD analyses suggest that a tetrahedral coordination (CdCl4)2− is predominant in molten CdCl2. The XAFS result of a molten 50%CdCl2-KCl mixture shows that the 4-fold (CdCl4)2− structure holds also in the mixture
